the relevant budget data to verify accomplishments or remedy
differences.

Control can also be exercised using methods other than budgets. Through
the use of financial ratios, for example, managers realize the strengths and
weaknesses of company operations. Financial ratios are financial measures
of performance called from accounting records, as summarized by financial
statements.

in converting resources to profits

also being done nowadays. Specifically, the Balanced Scorecard looks at other areas that
contribute to company areas. Aside from the financial aspect, it looks into how customer,
internal processes and people contribute to company performance. Depending on the areas that
drive organizational success, managers tend to focus on certain areas. Those which are market-
driven, for example, have scorecards that is dominated by customer satisfaction. As much as
possible, however, the scorecard is designed to establish the synergy among the different areas
of organizational performance being measured.

performance management tool used
by organizations to monitor and
measure their key performance
indicators (KPIs) across various
perspectives such as financial,
customer, internal processes, and
learning/growth. It helps in aligning
business activities with the
organization's strategy and ensures a
holistic view of performance.
